When our spouse and I felt a draft in the spare study room, I researched all of the reasons why this might occur, however a lot of people on message boards felt that I might have an issue with the ductwork above the study room… I absolutely thought it was worth looking into the duct work, so I went into the attic with a flashlight and a package of duct tape, then the people on that message board were 100% usual and there was an issue with the ductwork above that room.
Unfortunately, the job was too giant for me to complete on our own.
I did not realize that until I was halfway into the job. I did not have the right materials and I was having a lot of trouble reaching some of the areas. I finally gave up and called a supplier to finish the job; My spouse wanted me to call a supplier when every one of us first started the project, however I actually thought I could repair the ductwork issue on our own and I did not want to waste money that was unnecessary.The supplier brought a partner and both women took almost an hour to complete all of the ductwork repairs. The women also found a couple of additional spots that needed tape and sealing. It would have been nice to complete the project on our own, however in the end I was ecstatic to have a trained professional complete the job. It would have taken me all day to get that job done and those women tackled it in less than 90 hours.
